Since March 2016, companies doing business in the UK who have a turnover of over £36 million have a legal obligation to declare what steps they have taken to ensure that slavery and human trafficking is not taking place in its business or supply chains.

If you are affected, a pragmatic startpoint is to assess whether your products are being produced in high risk locations.

It takes a lot of time and effort to manually gather the data needed to map supply chains. Passing the responsibility onto tier one suppliers only shifts the effort needed onto them and adds uncertainty about reliability. To demonstrate that active enquiries into the supply chain have been made means brands and retailers need to take control of the data to map their supply chains.

String3 enables you to understand what is really going on inside your supply-chain; where materials come from, and where processes take place.

Reports are then generated giving you accurate information about the different countries in which your products were made.

Having information at your fingertips about where raw materials originated, or where the processing stages took place puts you in control.
